Description:

J.R.C.G. is a project by Tacoma-based Justin R. Cruz Gallego. Co-produced with Seth Manchester (The Body, Battles, M.D. Moktar), J.R.C.G. releases its second album, "Grim Iconic...(Sadistic Mantra)" on Sub Pop. Justin R. Cruz Gallego's shattering Sub Pop. To experience his debut release is to be reborn from the ashes. The Tacoma-based artist's second album, Grim Iconic... Gallego's influences for the album include British documentary filmmaker Adam Curtis, who wrote and directed the album, and the British film "The Rise of the Sadist... (Sadistic Mantra)," which was released in 1985. Gallego's influences on the album range from British documentary filmmaker Adam Curtis to Miles Davis, Demdike Stare, and Oneohtrix Point Never. But it is Gallego's solid soundscape that resonates most loudly: J.R.C.G. is a solo project, and the album was conceived and executed primarily in Gallego's home studio.With Seth Manchester as co-producer, Gallego also found strength in opening up the project to others, as seen in his productions for The Body, Battles, and Mdou Moctar, Manchester's penchant for bone-rattling Manchester's penchant for bone-rattling frequencies made him a natural fit for Gallego. The album, Grim Iconic... (Sadistic Mantra), was a natural fit for Gallego. (Sadistic Mantra) is, on the whole, a work of sonic swirl, pummeling, and purification. It's a sweaty, thrilling aural adventure, like a great basement show that leaves you breathless, exhausted, and wanting to repeat it all over again. Like an excellent mantra.
